In August of 2015,Brandon D., a 15 year old left handed pitcher, came to a Rocket Launchers Training Camp all the way from Queens, NY . According to his father, Brandon had already seen 4 different orthopedists for recurring, debilitating left biceps pain. He had struggled with it for over a year and had been shut down from throwing for 6 weeks on two separate occasions. Per his report, after throwing 1-2 innings, he would notice a distinct loss of velocity, and he would experience gnawing,...

Last week I scrubbed in to surgery with Tampa Bay Rays Team doctor, Koco Eaton to observe one of the most amazing surgical performances I have ever seen. The patient was a college pitcher named Zach.

Recently, I was totally blind-sided by something I truly didn’t see coming.
Let me tell you the story of Danny Muniz.
Danny is a rising college sophomore from the Miami area. He’s a right-handed pitcher who upon graduation from high school was topping at a whopping 82 mph. Not willing to give up on his dream of playing college baseball, he accepted a scholarship to an NAIA school in...

Here is a business and coaching axiom I made up several years ago.
“The quality of an organization is inversely proportional to the number of meetings they hold… especially emergency meetings.”
I don’t do meetings.
And here’s why.
When I was in the military, I attended far too many meetings with no direction or purpose. Frequently, I would sit and listen to lower level officers bloviate, posture and grandstand in hopes of impressing the top brass. More times than not I...

Summer Travel Ball is over. Jupiter is 15 weeks away. If you're a high school aged player, and you haven't already landed a college commitment. You have about 15 weeks to build a better mouse trap. Throw some cheddar on it and mice will come running.
